My only exposure to The Witcher is from the ~~advertisement~~ crossover quest in Monster Hunter World. The quest was cracking me up the whole time because Geralt was so stereotypical "cool grizzled guy" in his dialogue and voice acting that I half expected him to say "Psssh… Nothin Personnel… Kid…"

Is he this much of a weenie in The Witcher 3 or did Monster Hunter do him dirty?

Geralt is the reason I have never been able to get into the Witcher series. By all accounts the Witcher 3 is one of the greatest RPGs of all time with an insane amount of depth but I just can't get over the fact that I have no choice to play a character that reads like a 15 year olds checklist of hyper cool masculinity. I get that the character has been around for a while and it wasn't so much a cliche when he was first written but sheesh....I just have a hard time taking him seriously.

Honestly l was worried about that but actually came away fairly pleasantly surprised by his characterization when I played through the game. Although it's definitely undercut by the epic bewbz shit they like to put in these kinds of games
